I think we might need some sort of a guide that will explain the basics of the game. I've played X-com 1&2 for a long time, but I can't understand a single thing of what's going on in this one... :blink:

I could of not have said it better. I played X-com extensively and loved it. Apocalypse seems to have added unnecessary complexity. I love how you can now set your movement so that you have not to do snap shot AND duck, that was a great innovation. I don't know how to send your troop transport ATV to a crashed UFO (Something so basic should be simple, I could understand everything else). Still its a true X-com game, but not as good as the previous too, with some polish it could have been a gem.

Also how is the real time option. I haven't tried it out yet, but Im afraid that it might be a mess. Any Thoughts?

Only flying vehicles can be sent on UFO recovery.

I was a huge fan of X-Com 1 and 2. And have sunk days of play into it.

I've tried to get into playing Apocalypse at least 10 times over the last 15 years, but I've always bounced after 15 mins of play.

Apocalypse was a sad sequel in my opinion.
